CHINESE.

The following letter was written by a young man who was converted in our
Chinese school in Salt Lake City. It is a notification to his teacher of
his arrival in China. It is interesting as a suggestion of the
far-reaching influences of our Chinese work:

HONG KONG, China, April 5, 1896.

DEAR FRIEND MRS. M.E. JONES:

I have arrived here on Sunday 5th of this month, and was very fine
trip. This ship is very swistest [sic], because it is large and
strong.
